(Main)Aggregates for railway ballast
Aggregates for railway ballast
This European Standard specifies the properties of aggregates obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled crushed unbound aggregates for use in construction of the upper layer of railway track. For the purposes of this standard, the aggregate is referred to as railway ballast.
A list of the source materials that have been considered and are within the scope of this European Standard is given in Annex E (normative).
NOTE Reused railway ballast: railway ballast resulting of previously used railway ballast on site and without putting it on the market is not covered by this European Standard.
It also specifies that a quality control system is in place for use in factory production control and it provides for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard.
It incorporates a general requirement that railway ballast should not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination.
Railway ballast used in construction should comply with all the requirements of this European Standard. The standard includes comprehensive and specific requirements for natural aggregates and recycled ballast, dealing with, for example, the stability of certain basalts.
For materials from some other secondary sources, however, work is ongoing and the requirements are incomplete. In the meantime such materials, when placed on the market as railway ballast, should conform fully to this standard but may also be required to conform to specific relevant additional requirements at the place of use. Additional characteristics and requirements may be specified on a case by case basis depending upon experience of use of the product, and defined in specific contractual documents.
Requirements for the declaration of the potential of railway ballast to release regulated dangerous substances are currently under development. Until such time as these are finalised, attention should be paid to requirements at the place of use.
Gesteinskörnungen für Gleisschotter
Die vorliegende Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften von Gesteinskörnungen für die Verwendung beim Bau der oberen Schicht von Bahnkörpern fest, die durch Aufbereitung natürlicher oder industriell hergestellter Materialien oder gebrochener ungebundener rezyklierter Gesteinskörnungen gewonnen werden. Für die Anwendung dieser Norm werden die Gesteinskörnungen als Gleisschotter bezeichnet.
Anhang E (normativ) enthält ein Verzeichnis der berücksichtigten Ausgangsmaterialien, die im Anwen-dungsbereich dieser Europäischen Norm liegen.
ANMERKUNG Wiederverwendeter Gleisschotter: Gleisschotter, der aus an der Baustelle vorher verwendetem Gleisschotter stammt und nicht in Verkehr gebracht wurde, ist nicht Gegenstand dieser Europäischen Norm.
Die Norm enthält ebenfalls die Festlegung, dass ein Qualitätskontrollsystem für die werkseigene Produktionskontrolle einzuführen ist, sowie Festlegungen für die Bewertung der Konformität von Produkten nach dieser Europäischen Norm.
Sie enthält die allgemeine Anforderung, dass die Freisetzung gefährlicher Stoffe aus Gleisschotter die maximal zulässigen Grenzwerte, die in der einschlägigen Europäischen Norm für das Material festgelegt sind bzw. die nach den nationalen Bestimmungen des Bestimmungsmitgliedstaats zulässig sind, nicht übersteigen darf.
Im Bauwesen verwendeter Gleisschotter sollte mit allen Anforderungen dieser Europäischen Norm übereinstimmen. Diese Norm enthält umfassende und spezifische Anforderungen an natürliche Gesteinskörnungen und an rezyklierten Gleisschotter, die sich zum Beispiel mit der Raumbeständigkeit einiger Basalte befassen.
Die Arbeiten an Materialien aus einigen anderen sekundären Quellen sind jedoch noch nicht abgeschlossen und die Anforderungen sind unvollständig. In der Zwischenzeit sollten solche Materialien, sofern sie als Gleisschotter in Verkehr gebracht werden, den Anforderungen dieser Norm voll entsprechen. Unter Umständen müssen sie aber auch zusätzliche spezifische Anforderungen, die am Verwendungsort gelten, erfüllen. Abhängig von den Erfahrungen mit der Anwendung des Produkts dürfen im Einzelfall zusätzliche Eigenschaften und Anforderungen festgelegt werden und in den spezifischen Vertragsunterlagen definiert werden.
Zurzeit werden Anforderungen an die Angabe des Potenzials von Gleisschotter, gesetzlich geregelte gefährliche Stoffe freizusetzen, erarbeitet. Bis zur Fertigstellung dieser Anforderungen sollten die Anforderungen am Verwendungsort beachtet werden.
Granulats pour ballasts de voies ferrés
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les caractéristiques des granulats obtenus par traitement de granulats concassés naturels, artificiels ou recyclés utilisés dans la construction de la couche supérieure de la voie ferrée. Pour les besoins de la présente norme, les granulats sont appelés ballasts de voies ferrées.
Une liste des origines des matériaux qui ont été prises en considération et relèvent du domaine d'application de la présente norme est donnée à l'Annexe E (normative).
NOTE Ballast de voie ferré réutilisé : un ballast de voie ferrée provenant d’un ballast de voie ferrée précédemment utilisé sur site et non mis sur le marché n'est pas couvert par la présente Norme européenne.
Elle spécifie également qu’un système de maîtrise de la qualité est mis en place en vue de la maîtrise de la production des granulats et elle prévoit l’évaluation de la conformité des produits à la présente Norme européenne.
La présente norme intègre une exigence générale stipulant que les ballasts ne doivent dégager aucune substance dangereuse dont les valeurs d'émission dépassent les niveaux maximaux admissibles spécifiés dans une Norme européenne pertinente pour le matériau ou dans la réglementation nationale de l'Etat membre de destination.
Les ballasts de voies ferrées utilisés dans la construction doivent satisfaire à toutes les exigences de la présente Norme européenne. Cette norme contient des exigences détaillées et spécifiques relatives aux granulats naturels et aux ballasts recyclés, et traitent par exemple de la stabilité de certains basaltes.
Cependant, pour les matériaux provenant d’autres sources secondaires, les travaux sont en cours et les exigences sont incomplètes. En attendant, il convient que ces matériaux, lorsqu'ils sont mis sur le marché en tant que ballasts, respectent pleinement la présente norme, mais ils peuvent aussi devoir se conformer à des exigences complémentaires spécifiques pertinentes sur le lieu d'utilisation. Des caractéristiques et des exigences complémentaires peuvent être spécifiées au cas par cas, en fonction de l'expérience acquise à l'usage du produit, et définies dans des documents contractuels spécifiques.
Les exigences relatives à la déclaration du potentiel des ballasts de voies ferrées à dégager des substances dangereuses réglementées sont actuellement en cours d’élaboration. Tant qu’elles ne sont pas finalisées, il convient de tenir compte des exigences en vigueur sur le lieu d’utilisation.
Agregati za grede železniških prog
Ta evropski standard določa lastnosti agregatov, pridobljenih z obdelavo naravnih, umetnih ali recikliranih zdrobljenih nevezanih agregatov za uporabo pri konstrukciji zgornje plasti železniških prog. V tem mednarodnem standardu se agregat imenuje greda železniških prog. Seznam obravnavanih izvornih materialov, ki so predmet tega standarda, je naveden v dodatku E (normativni). OPOMBA: Ponovno uporabljene grede železniških prog: v tem evropskem standardu niso zajete grede železniških prog, ki so bile že uporabljene na mestu vgradnje in niso bile dane na tržišče. Prav tako določa, da mora biti pri kontroli proizvodnje v obratu vzpostavljen sistem kontrole kakovosti, in opredeljuje vrednotenje skladnosti izdelkov s tem evropskim standardom. Vključuje splošno zahtevo o tem, da grede železniških prog ne smejo oddajati nobenih nevarnih snovi v količinah, ki so večje od največjih dovoljenih količin v ustreznem evropskem standardu za materiale ali v nacionalni zakonodaji države članice. Grede železniških prog, ki se uporabljajo pri konstrukcijah, morajo izpolnjevati vse zahteve tega evropskega standarda. Standard vključuje celovite in posebne zahteve za naravne agregate in reciklirane grede železniških prog, na primer v zvezi z obravnavo stabilnosti nekaterih bazaltov. Za materiale iz nekaterih drugih sekundarnih virov oblikovanje standardov še poteka in so zahteve nepopolne. Kadar so taki materiali dani na tržišče kot grede železniških prog, morajo v celoti ustrezati temu standardu in morajo biti morda skladni tudi s posebnimi ustreznimi dodatnimi zahtevami, ki veljajo na območju uporabe. Dodatne značilnosti in zahteve se lahko določijo za vsak posamezen primer glede na izkušnje pri uporabi izdelka in so opredeljene v posebnih pogodbenih dokumentih. Zahteve za izjavo o kapaciteti gred železniških prog za izpust reguliranih nevarnih snovi so v pripravi. Dokler te zahteve niso dokončno oblikovane, je treba upoštevati zahteve na območju uporabe.
